To be precise I use the "Clone Stamp Tool"

Clever. I thought you were using the magnetic lasso followed by excision & transposition. Was the clone stamp used for the shadows too?

Excellent work as always Frank. I know that the photography can be as much fun as any other aspect of miniature collecting. Thank you for sharing the results of your efforts with us. I enjoy seeing the different manufacturers work blended together into believable compositions like this and hope to see more soon.
All the Best,
Ken

Yes, the portion of the shadow that crossed the base was realigned using the clone stamp tool.

Thanks Ken,

I think one of the benefits of creating temporary scenes to photograph is it allows the same figures/vehicles etc. to be displayed in multiple ways. I have something in the works featuring different H&A scenics that should be ready in the next few days.

Love the B&W colors, special for those running Germans, one of the best releases form FL WWII. I did take myself a couple of photos, from the diorama that I made for Andreas last year of these guys, if you allow me to post, here they are.

Frank,

This is a stunning scene and superbly photographed, would there be any chance of seeing this in colour?. Really good work Frank.

Then Rod, you are a master of the dio scene, just superb stuff. Can I ask, did you build those ruined buildings yourself?.Cheers

I love these photos Rod. Frank and yourself create quite the 1-2 punch with these stunning diorama photos. It is a privilege to view your creative talents on display here. Please keep the photos coming.

Almost forgot to ask about the wrecked car. I think you talked about this a while back on another thread, but cannot recall if this was from a kit or a modified pre-assembled item.
